how did they keep that quite? Stmunnsriver (Wexford) - Posts: 2891 - 26/03/2023 14:43:36 2466672 Link

Replying To Stmunnsriver: "how did they keep that quite?" The Dubs always do this stuff well. In contrast to my own county where everyone bit of dirty linen is aired in public. peiledoir20 (Donegal) - Posts: 1036 - 26/03/2023 14:56:19 2466677 Link
Replying To Stmunnsriver: "how did they keep that quite?" Players and management just didnt say it to anyone. Do we know how long hes been back with squad. could be factor in no news about it as well... KillingFields (Limerick) - Posts: 3674 - 26/03/2023 15:05:13 2466681 Link
Replying To KillingFields: "Players and management just didnt say it to anyone. Do we know how long hes been back with squad. could be factor in no news about it as well..." Must mean that Comerford is gone. Not sure what the situation is with Shiels. O'Hanlon has been excellent and is improving with every game. He deserves to keep the spot.

Is it known why Clux vanished in the first place (more than just bored of winning All-Irelands)? omahant (USA) - Posts: 2889 - 26/03/2023 16:48:22 2466756 Link
I'd say he just showed up this morn. "Any games lads?" MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13779 - 26/03/2023 17:00:09 2466765 Link

I see Pat Spillane has labelled Cluxtons return "a joke" Interesting that the most negative and ill thought mutterings are coming from a Mayo man and a Kerry man in a very open manner in the national media Hmmm.. wonder why? jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20687 - 04/04/2023 10:49:39 2468725 Link
Replying To jimbodub: "I see Pat Spillane has labelled Cluxtons return "a joke" Interesting that the most negative and ill thought mutterings are coming from a Mayo man and a Kerry man in a very open manner in the national media Hmmm.. wonder why?" Pat is hoping that no player wins 9 AI medals, to surpass his 8. Mick Fitz, Jimmy Mac, and now Cluxo may have a sweet riposte to Spillane in a few short months. I could feel the fear in his writing. foreveryoung (USA) - Posts: 2095 - 04/04/2023 12:14:55 2468751 Link

We all thought Cluxton was the kind of man who didn't like the limelight, how things have changed. Pat is right, if Derry or any other team brought back a man of 41 they'd be laughed at.

If we did, we might be asking them for help too. WanPintWin (Galway) - Posts: 2187 - 04/04/2023 18:04:59 2468874 Link

Nobody knew he was coming back until he literally stepped of their team bus. Bizarre comment. SimonstownBack (Meath) - Posts: 161 - 04/04/2023 19:14:19 2468890 Link

Shame there's no one that can be brought back in! foreveryoung (USA) - Posts: 2095 - 04/04/2023 20:25:19 2468909 Link

Pat is right, if Derry or any other team brought back a man of 41 they'd be laughed at." its a bit different as cluxton is an 8 time all ireland winner and arguably the greatest keeper of all time armaghfan02 (Armagh) - Posts: 39 - 05/04/2023 09:13:09 2468945 Link
Have I heard correctly that Cluxton has not even played club football in over two years but is now back in with Dublin? On that basis it sounds like he's back in to coach rather than play? Are Dublin supporters not sick and tired of the secrecy and poor communication? PeterQ92 (Donegal) - Posts: 115 - 05/04/2023 09:44:21 2468948 Link
